CVE-2023-5530
The Ninja Forms Contact Form WordPress plugin before 3.6.34 does not sanitize and escape its label fields, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored XSS attacks.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.62%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
